The Germans were definitely meticulous records keepers... still are. That's amazing documentation. Interesting that the hull had a mine-deterrent design if it was following the tanks for reloads. Did the record state which Panzer Division it supported?

Cool find regardless... talk about over- engineering.

I was looking into things, they also used a similarly equipped model as a minesweeper ahead of infantry units, so I’m wondering if that’s why the heavy armored bottom. The angle I think is more for water flow out of the thing, as there are drains at the rear and it does have a slight slope towards the rear as well.
